Niching Multimodal Landscapes Faster Yet Effectively: VMO and HillVallEA Benefit Together

Variable Mesh Optimization with Niching (VMO-N) is a framework for multimodal problems (those with multiple optima at several search subspaces). Its only two instances are restricted though. Being a potent multimodal optimizer, the Hill-Valley Evolutionary Algorithm (HillVallEA) uses large populatio...
